grill is pretty easy to pop off.......

 

true... ok lets just call it like it is.... im lazy lol!!!

 

Atleast your honest bout it. But its always good to know how to do stuff yourself. unless you just really dont care then its cool.

 

It gives you an excuse to go all out with paint though right? I got hit with my '08 WRX in the High School parking lot, kid didn't even know he hit my car. I walk out at the end of the day and see my right front fender caved in. pissed me off, but i did get a bada** paint job out of it, which would never have happened on its own. Look on the bright side, its a chance to fix some things while its down and out, i guess...

 

lol good point.... my blue subie will be back and better than ever soon

 

Car is going to the body shop today hopefully i have it back soon

 

I got mine back in under a week. Good Luck Man.

 

anyone know where to get that oem front lip kit cheaper then what is listed from subaru?

 

Im thinking of doing wrx fenders in the front of my wagon, but I think I have to replace the front bumper with a wrx sedan bumper because of the width. does anyone know if that is the case and/or if there will be any issues swapping the wagon bumper with the sedan bumper?

 

What model year car do you have? I would think the OEM lip kit runs pretty much the same amount everywhere since it ultimately comes from Subaru. You can get good quality replicas for much cheaper if you do not care that it is not a genuine part. For the newer subies the V-Limited is the most popular option, the cheapest one I am aware is bellow...

If you have an '02-'03; the same site has an OEM front spoiler on sale, but no replicas...

As far as the front swap; I have heard of people doing it without too much trouble since the other front parts (headlights, hoods, engines, etc) are the same. However, it is just word of mouth, so do not quote me on it...Good luck!

 

Okay...my car underwent some changes recently (mechanical and cosmetic), so I thought I post updated pics. Apologies for the bad point and shoot quality.

 

Looking Good!!!


edit: @ secondglance, any news on the car yet? I hope she's all fixed up and looking new
